Is Vilnius Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Vilnius

I would say Vilnius is pretty safe comparing to other cities I’ve been to. In day light it is completely safe to wake up by yourself as a woman. Other people especially men are a bit shy, and rarely give you any weird comments. However in the dark there are some places, around bus station especially, where you will feel a bit unsafe.

It is safe enough. There are places near old town (Naujamiestis, Krasnuxa, Szanxaj, central station) where you better do not go alone in the middle of the night because maybe you will be affected by some drunk people or homeless people. They are mot dangerous but they can disturb you. Overall it is safe.

I live in a calm and peaceful block. Even though there's a forest nearby, I don't feel scared walking around in the dark. In the center, it's also peaceful. I felt safe even after visiting a couple of bars in the center at night.

Vilnius is a lovely city with wonderful people who are ready to help you in any case! I’ve never felt unsafe here, even in the dark. Of course, there are some homeless and drinkers, but they don’t seem to be dangerous or be harassing anyone if you don’t touch or provoke them.

From my experience Vilnius is safe! I had late night walks and I did not receive any cat-calling or harassment. I mean like in any cities there is dangerous areas, but overall it's good in Vilnius. The public transport is also safe, just be respectful to elderly people ;)

Vilnius is safe place to visit for all people, there is no crime that much. You can walk on the night not worrying for anything. But you need to be a little bit careful when you are going to a train station area there is more people who are on drugs so maybe u should stay more in the other areas.

Vilnius is a beautiful safe place. I live in the city center and never feel any danger being alone outside at night, sometimes I am just going home from gym at 23:00. The only danger is probably on the weekends when people get drunk and might start talking to you , but that’s very rare.

Vilnius is one of the safest towns of Europe and one of the calmest places that I have ever lived. Crime rates are really low, when walking late at night I feel safe and comfortable and I don’t have to worry all the time time about my bag and even I’ve seen people are so chill about leaving their stuff and coming back because no one will take them. There are video cameras almost everywhere and Vilnius is very modern and well equipped with technology. People are friendly and helpful and respectful, they are especially helpful to foreigners and travelers. Overall, Lithuania is known for being safe. Also The majority population of Vilnius also is female.

I would say its quite safe, even at night. There are some specific places that i wouldn’t lets say go - that is near the clubs at night, or bars alone as some people wont be as friendly, and if you’re rude it could possible turn into a find - this goes more for men, as i haven’t heard stories of woman getting into fights. Feel free to text for any advise!

Vilnius is an extremely safe city. Maybe because it's quite small and everybody knows each other in one way or another, so making immoral stuff would be quite humiliating, cause it wouldn't go unnoticed.

Solo travel

I found Vilnius really safe, people really mind their own business and men are respectful. I even went on my own for food and a drink to a local pub, there was a group of men seated at the same table and they let me be. I loved the history of Vilnius, visiting the museums, going to the Opera, the prison, a fascinating place!
